I remember last year players had to play two matches in one day which is crazy, that will probably happen again this year unless things clear out.

I don't think enough is said about tennis players and what they have to go through on days like this. Incredible they can maintain focus and composure enough to play matches 4-5 hours late, during repeated weather delays. As fan it is incredibly frustrating, you can only imagine what they must be thinking.

Oh boy, Milos with a medical timeout getting his neck/upper back checked out.

I find the camera angle/placement very odd on this court.

Yeah, it's too bad because this match was originally scheduled to be on Centre Court. but with the rain delay Shapo and Milos got pushed to an outer court. I guess we should be thankful that there is still tv coverage.

Milos clanks a sitter volley into the net to give Shapo a set point and then Shapo sends an easy forehand wide. 6-6 and we play on in the first set tie-breaker.

Milos with the break to take a 2-zip lead in set 2. With the way he is serving today, that could very well be the match.

Denis breaks at love with a huge assist from Milos and we're back on serve in set 2.
